6 Installing an Additional Processor

Introduction

The HP Netserver LP 2000r ships with at least one processor installed. Both
primary and secondary processor sockets are located on the system board (the
primary socket is CPU 1). The voltage regulator modules (VRMs) are embedded
in the system board.

Tools Required

The following tools are required to access, install, or remove the processors:

¼-inch flat blade screwdriver

An anti-static service kit (3M

8501/8502/8503 or equivalent). This kit

includes a static-dissipating work surface, a chassis clip lead, and a wrist
strap.

Processor Configuration Guidelines

The HP Netserver LP 2000r supports processor speeds of 866 MHz, 933 MHz,
and 1 GHz, with a front side bus (FSB) speed of 133 MHz. For the most recent
support information, visit the HP web site:

Both processors must be the same type and have the same product number,
which insures the same clock speed, cache size, and FSB speed.

The processors must operate at the designated speed stated by the product
type on the processor.

Use only processor upgrade kits with the same HP product number. This
ensures the processor type, clock speed, and cache size are the same.

Install the second processor in the secondary socket (CPU 2).
See Figure 6-1.
